Expert Reviews
What reviewers liked
We bought this to match other GE appliances in our newly purchased home. We were on a budget, but still needed something sizeable and functional for our large family (6 kids). This was just as described and pictured, shipping was on time, and the appliance was easy to install and was by far the BEST price we found out there! ABT will be on our list for future purchases, for sure!

What reviewers didn't like
This was a replacement for the same brand and looked the same. But is much cheaper made. Came with a bad door. I will have to get it replaced under warrantee, but still what a hassle and its taking 3 or more weeks to get replaced and then installed again.. Get a better quality model.
On the downside, the door feels a little clumsy and makes some noise when it is closing. Moreover, the model has a small cooking space compared to models offering more or less the same features. Some people find the light on the LCD too weak to enable easy reading of the settings.
The durability of the product is not long lasting.
